[Bb]
[Fm] [C] [F] [C]
[F] [Cm] I used to stay up all night [F] drinking
[Ab] and be wondering where I [F] left my head.
[C] [Ab]
[Bb] [Fm] My days would start at midnight
[Bb] with all sorts of mischief [F] round my bed.
[C]
Hungover, shaky in the [Bb] mornings,
[Fm] and sometimes feeling [F] left for dead.
I'd wake up in my hotel room and wonder
who were all these people passed out on the floor.
[Ab]
[Bb] [Fm] It must have been a big night
[Bb] [Fm] cause I swear I can't [F] remember too much more.
[C] It'd be so [E] hard to pack my stuff and get [Bb] ready,
[C] ready to walk [F] on out that door.
I was on the slow train to nowhere
till I got tired of all that running round.
[Bb] I was [Fm] looking at the road to crazy
and Lord knows it was [F] about to blow me down.
[C] I could see there was no [Bb] future
but it didn't matter once I [F] hit every bar in town.

[Fm] I walked on the slow train to [F] nowhere
and couldn't see my future down that road.
[Bb] But I saw a bright light through the tunnel
when I finally [F] let those bottles go.
[C] Got off that train to [Bb] nowhere
and now I got a healthy [F] worthwhile life to [F] show. I'm home.
